once upon a time,
there were two peas in a pod.
true partners in crime;
envied, was their facade.
they kept each other's secrets,
at least one pea did.
a few spilled, the other admits.
she was reluctantly acquitted.
forgiven again and again,
deteriorating the bond's trust.
controlling her best friend,
their connection doomed to combust.
the big blow up never happened,
one pea just rolled away.
her life is now unburdened,
ready for a brand new day.

they kept each other's secrets,
at least one pea did.
a few spilled, the other admits.

forgiven again and again,
deteriorating the bond's trust.
controlling her best friend,
their connection doomed to combust.
the big blow up never happened,
one pea just rolled away.
her life is now unburdened,
ready for a brand new day.
Ever walk away from an unhealthy friendship or relationship feeling relieved?
